Full Description
In Jan. 1993 the construction of a new water pipe running parallel to the road revealed a deposit of fire-blackened stones. This was visited by Tony Woodham of Dingwall Museum and Bob Gourley of HC Archaeology Service and not seen as of major archaeological interest. (This should be MHG14720) .
At this location a C14 date in Feb. 1996 from this isolated charcoal-rich feature gave an uncalibrated date of 790, plus/minus 50 BC.
Also at NH 6269 6252, a feature containing charcoal and pottery returned a date of 3230BC.
The farm clearly has a wide range of activity from the Neolithic onwards.
